ST. JOHN (Fr Peter):
A much revered Catholic priest of the Archdiocese of Perth. He felt drawn to the priesthood after living and working for many years as a Christian Brother in various schools, where he displayed much ability as an effective teacher and was a very warm hearted member of his Christian Brother community. He will be sadly missed and we pray that he be rewarded for his generous work in his various fields of ministry.
